The Golden Knights are headed to their second power play of the game.

Brett Howden. 3-2 Blues. Bit of a broken play. Theodore’s point shot gets blocked in the lane. Goes to Howden, and he throws a fadeaway wrister by Binnington.

Jake Neighbors. 3-1 Blues. Neighbors comes downhill and beats Hill short-side.

End of the first, 2-1 Blues. Slow start for the Golden Knights. They overcame it thanks to Hertl’s power play goal, but another late period goal has them trailing headed to the second period.

Nathan Walker. 2-1 St. Louis. 16 seconds left, and Walker converts on a rebound after the Golden Knights kill off the Howden penalty.

Brett Howden to the box for elbowing. Blues to the power play.

Tomas Hertl. 1-1. Power Play Goal. Dorofeyev lets one rip. Hertl follows it up on the rebound.

The fourth line, who’s really been the only one going for Vegas in the first, draw a penalty. Faulk for holding. Vegas to the power play.

Brayden Schenn. 1-0 Blues. Schenn lets one go from the top of the circle and beats Hill.

The Blues have had the edge early in this first period. Adin Hill has been sharp early.

Final, 5-3 Chicago. For the first time this season, the Golden Knights drop three games in a row in regulation. They are 1-5-0 in their last six games. Instant reactions, let’s hear them.

Samsonov to the bench. Extra attacker on for Vegas.

Whitecloud with a big hit on Donato. Maroon tries to fight Whitecloud. Maroon gets tossed. And Vegas has a power play out of it.

Cole Schwindt will not return to the game tonight. Lower body injury. Took just two shifts in the second period.

Hertl takes a penalty. And Tyler Bertuzzi scores another power play goal. 5-3 Chicago.

End of the second, 4-3 Chicago. The Golden Knights clawed their way back into the game with a great second period, only to give up another late goal to end the period.

Seth Jones. 4-3 Chicago. Jones scores on their 3rd shot of the period.

There’s 2:15 to play here in the second period. The lines, all period, have been fluid. However, it’s worked for the Golden Knights.

Tomas Hertl. 3-3. Power play goal. Theodore with the point shot, and Hertl gets the tip.

The Golden Knights are headed right back to the power play. Brodie goes for holding.

Alex Vlasic with a cheap hit on Brett Howden. Dangerous hit. Karlsson jumps in. Vlasic to the box for boarding. Howden appears to be ok.

Tomas Hertl. 3-2 Chicago. Hertl fends off Martinez, and beats Mrazek blocker side. Power move from Hertl. Who continues to be excellent.

From what I can tell, looks like the lines are as follows. 70-9-95 21-71-61 16-48-22 49-10-55

Another excellent play from Hertl below the goal line. Feeds Dorofeyev, and he misses the net.

Nic Hague and Pat Maroon drop the gloves. My goodness, that fight was long.

Lines are in the blender right now. Nothing constant, outside of the Olofsson, Hertl, and Dorofeyev line.

End of the first, 3-1 Chicago. The Golden Knights opened the scoring, then allowed thee goals in the final four minutes of the first period.

Taylor Hall. 3-1 Chicago. Scramble in front of Samsonov. Hall finds it and chips it in.

Tyler Bertuzzi. 2-1 Chicago. Power play goal. Jones rips one from the point, and Bertuzzi deflects it in with his skate.

And now, Pietrangelo is called for a trip. Chicago headed to the power play.

Lukas Reichel. 1-1. Great individual effort from Reichel. Chips a puck by Hague, then cuts in and beats Samsonov

Moments after the Olofsson Goal, Ilya Samsonov makes a fantastic save on a Bedard redirection. Huge save.

Victor Olofsson. 1-0 Vegas. Really good shift in the offensive zone. Pietrangelo draws attention as he walks down the wall, then threads a pass to Olofsson for the one-timer.

First good look for Vegas as Kolesar intercepts a pass from Mrazek, feeds Roy, whose one-timer is stopped by a diving Mrazek. Earlier in the season, that’s a goal.

Low event start to this one.

Final, 3-2 Carolina. The Golden Knights had the start they wanted, but just couldn’t find their finish. Vegas is now 1-4-0 in their last five games. Road trip finishes up tomorrow in Chicago. Instant reactions, let’s hear them.

Seth Jarvis. 3-1 Carolina. Two-on-one. Staal feeds Jarvis. Hill stacks the pads, but Jarvis rips it just inside the post.

Jackson Blake. 2-1 Carolina. Oh man. Blake looks to center the puck. Hanifin gets his stick on it and deflects it through Hill.

End of the second, 1-1. The Hurricanes got life after Kochetkov stopped Keegan Kolesar on the penalty shot. Special teams a big part of the story in this one. VGK have been excellent on the PK through 40.
